Impaired glucose homeostasis in insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3-transgenic mice.
Glucose homeostasis was examined in male transgenic (Tg) mice that overexpressed the human insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding protein (IGFBP)-3 cDNA, driven by either the cytomegalovirus (CMV) or the phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) promoter. The Tg mice of both lineages demonstrated increased serum levels of human (h) IGFBP-3 and total IGF-I compared with wild-type (Wt) mice. Fasting blood ...
متن کاملGrowth Inhibition in Giant Growth Hormone Transgenic Mice by Overexpression of Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Binding Protein-2.
To clarify the role of insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding protein-2 (IGFBP-2) in postnatal growth regulation, we crossed hemizygous CMV-IGFBP-2 transgenic mice with hemizygous PEPCK-bGH transgenic mice, which are characterized by serum GH levels in the range of 2 microgram/ml. Four genetic groups were obtained: animals carrying both transgenes (GB), the GH (G) or the IGFBP-2 transgene (B)...
متن کاملInsulin-like growth factor-binding protein-4 inhibits growth of the thymus in transgenic mice.
Numerous in vitro studies have demonstrated that IGF-binding protein (IGFBP)-4 is a consistent inhibitor of IGF actions. In order to investigate the functions of IGFBP-4 in vivo, transgenic mice were generated by microinjection of a transgene, in which the murine Igfbp4 cDNA is driven by the H-2K(b) promoter, and followed by a splicing cassette and polyadenylation signal of the human beta-globi...
متن کاملpolymorphism of insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (igfbp-3) gene associated with growth traits in cyprinus carpio
the genetic polymorphism of insulin-like growth factor binding protein ( igfbp-3 ) and its association with the growth traits namely condition factor, body weight, and total length were investigated in common carp cyprinus carpio using pcr- single strand conformation polymorphism (sscp) technique. caudal fin clips from 120 c. carpio , aging 5 months, were used in this study and a 330 bp dna fra...
متن کاملIslet cell proliferation and apoptosis in insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 in transgenic mice.
Transgenic mice which overexpress insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 (IGFPB-1) demonstrate fasting hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia and glucose intolerance in adult life. Here we have examined the ontogeny of pancreatic endocrine dysfunction and investigated islet cell proliferation and apoptosis in this mouse model. In addition we have examined pancreatic insulin content in transgenic...
